Hickey's Rock and Optimised could dispute the early lead here, with Echo Lady and, third of 14, beaten 6½L in Wexford maiden hurdle last week, Whatsinthecorner, in behind with the selection, MAJOR DESTINATION, who showed a perfectly solid first hurdles effort at Punchestown, but pulled up, when beaten last time out and can put that behind him here.
